I want something with enough residual income to eventually quit my day job. 

Some of it very germane some of it passe' or not really legal anymore in certain venues.Its like many things RE no different you need to put in your apprenticeship .. the idea that you can go from zero to making 20 to 50k a month flipping houses well that's just not reality but.. the idea you can go from zero to 20k a month in residual income selling Herbal life well thanks not reality either for most of us.For me RE was a process..

I do like the idea of residual income through seller financing though...

Technically the commission belongs to the brokerage and whatever the agreement is the agent gets the residual when it closes.A wholesaler often times is presenting themselves as being a CASH BUYER when 90 plus percent of the time it is smoke and mirrors.

The residue from the methamphetamine seeps into porous material like carpet, drywall and wood, etc.

I suspect it will be just above zero, but maybe that's being too optimistic, it might be less than zero.Another way to look at it is residual land value.

She has the duty to pay creditors and distribute the residual estate, not you.

I try to put down 25 to 50% so that I have cash reserves and have the owner float the rest with a note.In most cases you need at least 25% down because the owner wants a decent chunk upfront to retire or sell off plus the residual.

In that mode the investors still get the residual cash flow after the refi.

Generally some upfront and residuals on the payment.PM work would be you are working for a landlord leasing up a strip center etc. and then doing the ongoing management of the center month to month.
